One Picture And One Story Week #14

Hello everyone out here, how are you all doing over, there are certain pictures that speaks more to us, infact, there are certain pictures that whisper a whole lot to our inner mind and we just can't help but to ponder at some point why we had to even come across them. Today I will be talking about this picture I came across in Pixabay.

This picture do speak a whole lot, when I look at this picture, all I see is the reality of life we are living today where parents tend to neglect their own kids, it's heart wrecking to see young and innocent children children being neglected by their own parents.

Some days back, I visited the town plaza and saw some groups of children begging, I was just so moved that I even had to go see them just to know why they were there and how they have been coping. Their story got me teary. One of them named Joseph told me her mum went to a local prayer house, this was when they told her mum that he is a witch.

When the mum came back from the church, she chased him away that cold evening and ever since then (2019), he has been sleeping outside with his new found family which were children also suffering same fate.

The worst part of it is that, these kids are just too innocent of these allegations. I mean why will parents be so insensitive to neglect their own kids? I kept wondering to myself, why can't they just give these kids to people who really need them and are ready to take care of them with all cost? If there is a way I could just see these parents who are so wicked to the extent of neglecting their own kids, then i will speak much sense to them, I think by then, they will know the level of such atrocity and the repercussion.

Children are God's gift and as such should be treated as jewels, if you are not ready to have them, then stay off instead of bringing innocent souls to pass through this life alone without a single support from you.

I am inviting @emily08, @unyime23 and @wirngo to participate in this contest.
